Exiting Milestone ReportThere are some extra things that you need to be aware of as an exiting cluster. Therefore, please read the attached support notes carefully as they should give you all the information that you need.
When writing the report, remember to keep your reporting focused on outcomes (the impact of things you did within your programme) rather than output (what you did).
See guidelines below Please make sure that you involve all the cluster management team in the writing of this report in order to have the perspectives of all stake holders in the report. When writing to the difference sections of the report, please have a collated response for that section rather than a separate one for each school. Obviously, this is not the case in the section asking for individual reports from each school.
If there is a double-up when writing to the areas of leadership, implementation and community and then writing to your cluster goals from your contract at the bottom of the report, then you are able to refer from one section to another rather than repeating yourself.
You will need to include an invoice when submitting your final milestone to receive your last payment - details are in the supporting documentation.

Notes for writing School Reports in Milestones
The milestone reporting expectations have now been reduced from four reports a year to two bi-annual reports. There is, however a requirement that each contributing school within your cluster will provide some additional information for each milestone submitted as written, “Provide a brief report on progress from each school.”
The following are some guidelines for each school to follow; so that the reports submitted are a true reflection of evidence-based practice and progress for that particular reporting period. This evidence will do well to provide information for your-selves as a form of review and will also supply the Ministry of Education with some insight into the progress and developments made within each contributing school.
There is an expectation that:
Both the lead teacher/s and the Principals will have some input in these reports.
The timeframes are reflective of the reporting period
Comments are made in relation to Programme implementation, Developing ICT planning and Leadership Capability, Establishing a professional learning community
Comments relate to the intended contract goals
Evidence is provided to support the reports
Possible Points to Consider:
Programme implementation
• Methods of programme delivery (staff meetings, workshops, one-to-one tutoring, quality learning circles, in-class support, school visits, mini-conference, student workshops)
• Personnel involved (Principals, lead teachers, support staff, teachers, students)
• Outcomes, progress, issues, barriers, trends
